本所將舉辦「思想與實踐」系列講座,資訊如下:
講題:Tocqueville's Dilemmas and Ours: Sovereignty, Nationalism, Globalization
主講人:Ewa Atanassow ( PhD, The Committee on Social Thought, The University of Chicago)
時間:111年11月17日(四)14:00-16:00
地點:政治所演講廳(社SS 3010-2)
It is expected that this lecture will bring about the following gains to teachers and students:
Ewa Atanassow is Professor of Political Thought at Bard College Berlin. In her new book, she argues that democracy’s prospects depend on how we tackle three dilemmas that were as urgent in Tocqueville’s day as they are in ours: how to institutionalize popular sovereignty, how to define nationhood, and how to grasp the possibility and limits of global governance. These are pivotal but often neglected dimensions of Tocqueville’s work, and this fresh look at his writings provides a powerful framework for addressing the tensions between liberalism and democracy in the twenty-first century.
活動亮點:
Ewa Atanassow乃是德國柏林巴德學院的政治思想教授。
在她的新書中,她主張民主的前景有賴於我們能夠妥善地處理三項困境:如何將人民主權給制度化、如何定義民族性以及如何把握全球治理的可能性及其限制。
這三項困境不僅是對於法國思想家托克維爾,同樣也對我們現今的時代來說乃是甚為迫切的事。
這是在托克維爾的著作中極為關鍵但又常被忽略的面向。所以對其著作的重新省思,將可提供一個穩固的架構,來解決自由主義和民主在二十一世界的緊張關係。
